Top Knobs Garrison Collection cabinet hardware
The Garrison Collection is a transitional Top Knobs line centered on backplates, led by the Radcliffe backplate that sits behind a knob or pull to frame it against the cabinet. It is a finishing line: hardware meant to add a defined plate rather than stand alone. Backplates are often overlooked, and this collection treats them as the main event rather than an afterthought.
What identifies the Garrison look
The Radcliffe backplate carries clean rectilinear edges with a subtle border, sized to pair with coordinating knobs and pulls. Backplates protect the cabinet face from wear at the grip point while giving the hardware a heavier, more deliberate presence. The plate's restrained profile keeps it transitional rather than ornate, so it works under both a simple knob and a longer pull without fighting either.
Choosing within the line
Garrison suits transitional and traditional kitchens where cabinets benefit from a framed hardware point, and inset or painted cabinetry that shows wear over time. The line spans polished nickel, polished chrome, honey bronze, brushed satin nickel, flat black, and ash gray, so the plate can match an existing hardware finish already on the cabinets. Because it is a backplate line, plan it alongside the knob or pull it will sit behind so the screw spacing and the finish line up. It is a strong choice for older cabinetry where the wood around the handles has already started to wear.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Top Knobs Garrison Collection, and what type of hardware does it include?
The Garrison Collection is a transitional Top Knobs line built around backplates, specifically the Radcliffe backplate. The backplate sits behind a knob or pull to frame it against the cabinet face, so the collection functions as a finishing line rather than a standalone hardware set. It is designed to give hardware a heavier, more deliberate presence while protecting the cabinet surface from wear at the grip point.
What finishes are available in the Garrison Collection?
The Garrison Collection is offered in polished nickel, polished chrome, honey bronze, brushed satin nickel, flat black, and ash gray. This range allows the Radcliffe backplate to match an existing hardware finish already installed on the cabinets, which is useful when adding backplates to a room without replacing the knobs or pulls already in place.
How does the Garrison Collection differ from a standard pull collection like the Top Knobs Pemberton Collection?
The Garrison Collection centers on backplates — plates that mount behind a knob or pull — rather than on the knob or pull itself, making it a finishing or layering line. The Pemberton Collection, by contrast, is a coordinating transitional pull line, offering the primary gripping hardware. The two are complementary: Garrison provides the framed backplate, while a pull collection like Pemberton provides the handle that sits in front of it.
What cabinet types and settings are best suited to the Garrison Collection?
The Garrison Collection is well suited to transitional and traditional kitchens, and it is particularly practical for inset or painted cabinetry that shows wear around the handle area over time. Older cabinetry where the wood near the handles has already begun to wear is a strong use case, since the backplate covers and protects that area. The Radcliffe backplate's restrained, rectilinear profile keeps it compatible with both simple knobs and longer pulls without visually competing with either.
